Day 14: Hello Nadi and Hostelville

Today we woke up without a destination or set time. We had breakfast at the hostel which consisted of bananas, pineapple, and toast. Then it was off on the town bus in front of the Aquarius Hotel. We paid $1 FD each to ride the local to New Town. Nadi was bigger than Savu Savu and had more touristy shops blended in. We found a couple trinkets and got some basic supplies and took a taxi back to Hostelville. The sun had been out in town but as soon as we got back and applied the unnecessary sunblock it was gone once again. We of course laughed and said, "really?" we headed out to the beach again and gave it a whirl. The sun came in and out. We hostel hopped and had some beers and apps at each location. The samosas at Aquarius (which is a total hit if you go to that area- cute pool and outside area) were amazing. We had an app then headed down the beach for a nap. We read in the sun, but really shade, until sunset where Amy got a massage on the beach. We then headed to Smugglers Cove for a a traditional dance show which ended with a fire dance. It was great! We ended the evening back at Aquarius to share a round of samosas and a chicken curry which was amazing. The Indian food in Fiji is both prominent and delicious. Our final stop was our hostel where we got some shut eye for the big kahuna which will begin tomorrow. We did a sun-dance as a nightcap and hoped for the best.
